Summary: Floridays
Review: A beautiful yet harsh look into the nature of Florida! The area he writes about, I have seen and it is still the same today as it was 70 years ago! If you want more of a personal inside into the author, try reading,"Whistled like a Bird" by Sally Chapman, you'll see a chapter including, Don Blanding and the area he so richly describes! It maybe be difficult finding a copy, but the local bookstores should have some on the shelves!

Summary: Floridays - The Vagabond Poet's tribuute to Florida
Review: Don Blanding wrote this book while married to socialite Dorothy Binney Putnam and living in Fort Pierce. It's a departure from his Hawaiian books of poetry, but written with the same heart-felt sincerity. The illustrations are fabulous! Jimmy Buffet, a long-time Blanding fan, based his album Floridays on this book. Find out more about Don Blanding at www.don-blanding.com

Summary: written from the heart--
Review: I love Florida.I love this book! I found this book from a reference in Jimmy Buffett's song FLORIDAYS. He writes with passion and lighthearted fun at the same time.Direct from the tropic of soul.

Don Blanding expresses his innermost feelings about his tropical home in Florida. It is probably one of my all time favorite books now. I have a similiar passion for FLorida and all of its tropical wonders. It touched my soul and my tropical heart. If you feel the same- you will love Floridays!
